On the last day of the 'Sixteen Counties Competition', the ten strongest people who were determined in the previous days will compete.
Of course, it is not certain whether these ten strongest people are the ten strongest people who came to participate in the "Sixteen Counties Martial Arts Competition" held by the Prince of Qin's Mansion this time, because the Sixteen Counties came to participate this time. There are still many young and strong men in the sixteen counties who have not taken action.
This time for the sixteen-county military competition, the Qin Palace set a rule:
Any one of the sixteen counties can choose one person as a 'trump card', who can take action at the end and directly compete for the 'top three' in the sixteen counties' martial arts competition.
The Prince of Qin's Mansion set up such a rule because it wanted the strongest young man among the sixteen counties to recharge his energy and prepare his best for the final "top three" competition in the sixteen counties' martial arts competition.
However, if the young and strong men in the Sixteen Counties who are the 'trump cards' do not even enter the 'top ten' in the Sixteen Counties' martial arts competition, the county where these young and strong men are located will be punished again. In each of the next ten years, three times the usual amount of high-grade immortal stones must be handed over.
Of course, if you don't have confidence in any of the sixteen counties, you don't have to keep any 'truck cards'.
In this regard, the Qin Palace will not force you.
However, once one of the sixteen counties keeps a trump card, it must abide by the rules set by the Qin Palace. If the trump card does not enter the top ten of the sixteen counties in the martial arts competition, it will be punished by handing in immortal stones for more than ten years.
Three of the sixteen counties under the command of the Prince of Qin had no confidence in the young and powerful men under their command and did not leave any 'trump cards'.
The other thirteen counties all left their own trump cards.
Including 'Jiuyou County'.
Jiuyou County's 'trump card' is Duan Lingtian, who has not yet appeared.
Today, if Duan Lingtian does not show up and does not participate in the competition for the "top three" in the sixteen counties' martial arts competition, he will be regarded as absent and automatically excluded from the "top ten" in the sixteen counties' martial arts competition. Jiuyou County will also suffer punishment.
Because of this, people in Jiuyou County have been very anxious in the past two days.
"It's the last day... Why hasn't Duan Lingtian come yet? Nothing really happened, right?"
Qin Yu is currently the only person in Jiuyou County who has entered the top ten of the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition.
Of course, this top ten is not enough to make the people of Jiuyou County happy, because there are still thirteen people who have not taken action, and twelve of them are the "truck cards" of the other twelve counties. Their strength is not that of Qin Yu under.
Only after the trump cards of the thirteen counties participate in the "top three" competition in the sixteen counties' martial arts competition, the top ten will be rewarded by the Qin Palace.
Although Qin Yu is now in the top ten of the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition, it does not mean that he can stay in the top ten forever.
Even if Duan Lingtian doesn't come, Qin Yu still has twelve strong competitors.
Because of this, Qin Yu's heart felt as if water had stopped flowing.
However, at this moment, he couldn't help but worry about Duan Lingtian's safety...
"Sheriff Tian."
At some point, Pingshan County Sheriff Wang Qiling came to Jiuyou County Sheriff Tian Jiyu and said with a faint smile: "Your Jiuyou County's trump card should be 'Duan Lingtian', right? However, he seems to still be there until now." Didn’t show up.”
"I heard that he left Jiuyou County nearly a year ago, and even left Jiuyou County... During this time, he couldn't have died outside, right?"
After asking, the smile on Wang Qiling's face became brighter and brighter.
"Isn't the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition... not over yet?"
Tian Jiyu narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "Chief Wang, you seem to be wishing that Duan Lingtian wouldn't come... It seems that you have no confidence in your Pingshan County's 'Yang Jin'."
When talking about it later, Tian Jiyu's tone also became a little more sarcastic.
Yang Jin is Pingshan County's "trump card" in participating in the sixteen-county martial arts competition this time, and he has not made a move yet.
However, although Yang Jin did not take action, Yang Jin's strength was recognized by the entire Pingshan County. Yang Jin's strength may not be as good as Duan Lingtian, but his reputation in Pingshan County is no better than Duan Lingtian's in Jiuyou County. of little fame.
"If it were someone else, I really wouldn't have no confidence in Yang Jin... But if it were to face Duan Lingtian, I really wouldn't have confidence in Yang Jin. Not just Yang Jin, I believe in the trump cards left by the other eleven counties ’, I won’t have confidence in Duan Lingtian from Jiuyou County.”
After hearing Tian Jiyu's words, Wang Qiling was not angry and said matter-of-factly: "After all, that Duan Lingtian from your Jiuyou County, nearly a year ago, in the Liu family of your Jiuyou County, he showed the ability to pursue Da Luo Jinxian. Strength."
"Even 'Pang Bing', the number one person under Daluo Jinxian in your Jiuyou County in the past, is not as good as him."
"Let me ask... How can I have confidence in Yang Jin from our Pingshan County when facing the current number one Daluo Jinxian in Jiuyou County? You know, Yang Jin's strength is even greater than that of your former Jiuyou County The number one person under Daluo Jinxian, 'Pang Bing', is far inferior."
After what Wang Qiling said, he not only recognized Duan Lingtian's strength, but even highly praised Duan Lingtian's strength.
If you don't know, you may think that Duan Lingtian is a person under his command, not a person from Jiuyou County.
The number one person under the Da Luo Jinxian in Jiuyou County that Wang Qiling mentioned was none other than Duan Lingtian, who had left Jiuyou County nearly a year ago and has not been heard from since.
"Prefect Wang is very self-aware."
Hearing that Wang Qiling praised Duan Lingtian so much, Tian Jiyu didn't know how to respond to Wang Qiling's words. After taking a deep look at Wang Qiling, he only said this sentence.
"Chief Tian...Duan Lingtian from Jiuyou County is already here, right? Are you hiding him?"
Wang Qiling also took a deep look at Tian Jiyu and asked meaningfully.
"Chief Wang seems to be very interested in Duan Lingtian."
Tian Jiyu said.
"That's natural... I think, not just me, but even the governors of the other fourteen counties are also very interested in Duan Lingtian. Even the 'King of Qin' from our Qin Prince's Mansion is said to be in front of others Duan Lingtian was mentioned later."
After talking about it, Wang Qiling could not help but feel a hint of envy in the depths of his eyes.
"Chief Tian, I'm really curious...Duan Lingtian, is he here?"
Wang Qiling asked again.
Even he himself didn't notice that when he asked again, his tone was more or less urgent, as if he really wanted to know whether Duan Lingtian was here.
"Mr. Wang, didn't you just say... that Duan Lingtian might have died outside?"
Tian Jiyu said lightly.
"It was just a joke."
After hearing Tian Jiyu's words, Wang Qiling's expression froze and he couldn't help but smile awkwardly.
"If Commander Wang wants to know if Duan Lingtian is here... he will know in the afternoon? Today, the final 'top ten' and 'top three' of the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition will all show off."
Tian Jiyu said calmly: "Either Duan Lingtian doesn't show up...if he does, he will definitely show up in the afternoon."
"But... I think you, Commander Wang, definitely don't want him to show up, right?"
Later, when Tian Jiyu looked at Wang Qiling, there was a hint of teasing in his eyes.
"how come!"
Wang Qiling shook his head and smiled, "I am looking forward to his appearance... Although I know that as soon as he appears, he will definitely be the 'number one' in the martial arts competition in the sixteen counties today. However, I still want to see him, who is less than a hundred years old. The demeanor of the first person under Daluo Jinxian in Jiuyou County."
Wang Qiling said these words very sincerely, as if these were really his deepest thoughts.
However, is this the case?
"Chief Tian, the battle for the 'top three' in the sixteen counties' martial arts competition is about to begin...the 'trump cards' of each county are about to be played. I will go back to where we are in Pingshan County first. Over there in the auditorium."
Wang Qiling said hello to Tian Jiyu and left.
"No!"
After glancing at Wang Qiling's back, Tian Jiyu said these two words unhurriedly.
But after Wang Qiling left, Tian Jiyu couldn't help but feel anxious in the depths of his eyes...
Today is the last day of the sixteen-county martial arts competition.
However, up to now, he still has not seen any trace of Duan Lingtian. It seems that Duan Lingtian has not come to the royal city or Prince Qin's palace yet.
The other side.
After Wang Qiling returned to the auditorium where the Pingshan County group was sitting, he also came to the side of a skinny man with an invisible appearance who was shrouded in gray robes. He said to this man in a respectful voice: "Senior, I tested Tian Jiyu... but nothing came out."
"He is very cunning and always talks about him left and right."
Wang Qiling said via message.
"It doesn't matter."
An old voice came to Wang Qiling's ears, and his tone was extremely calm, "Today is the last day of the martial arts competition in the sixteen counties... If Duan Lingtian appears, he will appear in the afternoon at the latest. If he does not appear, it also means that he From the beginning, I had no intention of participating in the Sixteen County Martial Arts Competition."
"Who is that person?"
Several elders and priests from Pingshan County who followed Wang Qiling could not help but tremble in their hearts when they saw their county guard standing next to the mysterious gray-robed man, showing a faintly respectful attitude.
I was curious about who this gray-robed man was and why he was treated like this by the governor of Pingshan County.
"This person...couldn't he be the strong man invited by the Sheriff to kill Duan Lingtian?"
An elder from the Pingshan County Sheriff's Mansion couldn't help but speculate in a low voice.
"impossible?"
Another elder said: "At this time, if the county guard dares to ask someone to kill Duan Lingtian... How can Prince Qin let the county guard go? After all, this is the palace of Prince Qin!"
"Duan Lingtian hasn't shown up yet, so he may not come... If he doesn't come, Yang Jin has a good chance of winning the 'first place' in this sixteen-county martial arts competition."
A priest from Pingshan County Sheriff's Mansion also spoke.
